"It's Donabe."
"What's Donabe?"
"Donabe is Japanese clay pot (donabe) cooking that provides a one pot meal."
That my friend, is what a donabe. I own a Chinese claypot and always wanted to expand my clay pot recipes. This book is exactly what I was looking for. For the cold winter nights, donabe is perfect. It's a very healthy way to cook with minimal fat and you can't complain when some of the donabe dishes brings a warmth to your body.
This books is beautifully photographed and great explanation of the history of donabe, different types of clay pot vessels and recipes ranging from rice, soup and hot pots. I love reading about Naoko's family history with the Donabe and the artisanal Donabe from Japan.
Even if you don't own a donabe, this book is for a cookbook collector and would be a great collection to anyone's cookbook.
I received this book from Blogging for Books for this review.
